13045: Canning River foreshore restoration

This project will continue to enhance foreshore restoration work
at four sites on the Canning River. These sites are:

Canning River Foreshore between Kent St and Bacon St,
Wilson

Canning River Foreshore at Nicholson Rd, Langford

Yule Brook and Canning River Foreshore, Beckenham

Canning River Foreshore at Goolamrup Reserve, Kelmscott

Weed control will occur over 21 hectares in total to allow
natural regeneration and the continued establishment of previously
planted native vegetation. A further 15 000 native seedlings will
also be planted.

The overall aim of this work is to improve the ecological
corridor that the Canning River represents between the Darling
Scarp and Swan Coastal Plain.

The project will also support existing community groups to
improve their section of the Canning River.
